Have you got the Halloween X Factor? - Tuesday, 26 October 2010

Have you got the Halloween X Factor? Guys and Ghouls are invited to boogie on down to the Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds, on Saturday (October 30) and show us your moves in a mass ‘Thriller’ dance-off!

Local dance guru Bazzmatazz will lead the dance-off from 12 noon in Armouries Square as part of the Royal Armouries’ Dangerously Entertaining Halloween events programme – Medi-Evil Mischief!

If you fancy giving it a go, you can check out and practise your dance moves with our Thrilling Knight in our YouTube™ video.

Royal Armouries spokesperson Beckie Senior said, “This event promises to be great fun and is an ideal chance for the kids to let off steam as the excitement mounts for Halloween on Sunday – without costing their mums and dads a penny!

Make sure you watch our YouTube video for some inspiration and keep up to date on our Facebook and Twitter pages. Even if you don’t fancy donning your dancing shoes, it also promises to be a great spectacle so just come along and watch.”
